Vice Speaker of the National Assembly Arevik Petrosyan Receives the
Heads of the Archive Services of the CIS Countries
On October 29 the Vice Speaker of the National Assembly Mrs. Arevik
Petrosyan met with the heads of the State Archive Service of CIS
countries, who were in Yerevan to take part in the regular meeting of
the Council of the Heads of the Archive Services of CIS countries and
the 10th Conference of the Eurasian area department of International
Council on Archives.
Mrs. Petrosyan welcomed the guests in the name of the Speaker of the
National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia Mr. Hovik Abrahamyan and
her name. He noted with satisfaction that the Armenian people were
the first in the history of human civilization to create the scripts
and managed to reach some part of the manuscripts through millennia
up to our days, which are mainly kept in Matenadaran.
The NA Vice Speaker said that the RA National Assembly also had
its contribution in the establishment of the state archive system
of Armenia. Only the fact that during the independence years three
laws related to the archive have been passed, speaks about the fact
that our country strives to improve the legislation concerning
the archive keeping and does not lag behind the processes of the
development of that sphere. Mrs. Petrosyan noticed that the law of the
Republic of Armenia on Archive Keeping, which was passed in 2004, was
elaborated taking into account the experience and achievements of CIS
countries, however today the scientific-technical progress dictates new
requirements, it's necessary to develop the electronic documentation
turnover, update the relevant law and invest new methods of keeping
and archiving the documents. In this direction the RA Government takes
measures and soon will start a legislative initiative. Mrs. Petrosyan
underscored the necessity of cooperation of State Archive Services
of the CIS countries and improvement of archive management methods.
At the meeting issues concerning the achievements reached in the
archive sphere, exchange of experience and cooperation of archive
services of CIS countries were discussed.
